fuel pump is big enough .. in any event the engine should run at idle with no problem  if the carb low speed circuit  is ok

try to pump the fuel bulb and if    the engine now runs ok then the fuel  pump is simply faulty  or not installed properly

if the engine does not run  better with  hand pumping the fuel into the carb……  then there is another issue to resolve.   Check for sparks when it dies…   you replaced the electricals ….but

clean..clean clean  the points..    even new condensers may be faulty      new plug cabling and boots  ?

tank vent is open  and  working ??   new hose .. old hose ??     side connector sucking air ???

 

Engine  PH looks super clean  must  have had lots of TLC… or a recent wash 🙂   nice kill button !
